Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Blanka]

Meanwhile, the Canucks are two for three on the power play with eight total shots in the game. It just goes to show that special teams can make or break you in the playoffs.

 

[1specter]

What a joke the Eastern matchups have been. Three series with 3-0 deficits, hopefully Leafs don't go down 3-1 tomorrow too smh

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Are the Preds and Canucks going to set a record for fewest combined shots per game in a series?

 

[Jojalu]

They're just happy to be there.

Pit would have been a way better series.

Not a popular opinion around here for some reason. Lol.

I do think Crosby and Malkin would have really gone all out for one last series win

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Going to be 3 sweeps in the east lol.

I am ashamed to say this but Pittsburgh was my fave team before the 93 playoffs. Lemieux was my favorite player. To paraphrase Tortorella, Crosby and Malkin are some of the most entitled whiners in the NHL. I can't stand Gretzky either. I hope Ovechkin breaks his record. Bunch of divers, the whole lot of them.

Preds get 1. 2-1 Nucks.

 

[TMLegend]

Canucks get outshot 31-12 and win 2-1. Lucky *******

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Can't tell if that's Demko or DeSmith in net. What a performance

Is the flu going through the Canucks or something? They didn't have much energy tonight

Unpopular opinion but I respect you for saying it

 

[fahad203]

Is Mackinnon not playing hockey in the same league as our players?

Why does he look like he's always the best player every time he's on ice

Even late in his shift, he just made Jets D look like Pee Wee calibre

Dude is on another level

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Avs are flying. Parise again lol

 

[Cleetus]

Hyman makes it 1-0 Oil

 

[TMLegend]

Hyman scores again. 1-0 Oil

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Beautiful pizza by Doughty. Good play by Ekholm

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Hyman is such a beauty

 

[keonsbitterness]

If Hyman wins the Conn Smythe, I'm going on a 20 minute hunger strike.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Kings should just decline PPs.

 

[TMLegend]

2-0 Oil. Draisaltl scores.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Another bad goal for Georgiev.
He’s lucky he has that offense in front of him.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Maybe that goal will get the Kings out of their stupid 1-3-1

MacK is more dynamic than our stars. He's faster and creates separation much like McDavid does.

Our stars are slower and easier to catch. Nylander is the exception but he rarely utilizes his speed to go to the net like MacK or McDavid. Nylander likes to fake going to the net and swing back for a perimeter shot or pass for some reason - maybe he's scared of contact.

If Nylander had the mentality of just using his speed to drive to the net every shift it would open up a ton of ice for everyone else.

 

[TMLegend]

McJesus does it himself. 3-0 Oil.

Not a great goal for Talbot.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Three goals in a period. We should try that.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Lol this game sucks. Kings playing scared and Talbot can't track the puck at all

Back to Avs/Jets
